- Figures 19A-19W are screen shots of a user interface for a registration system consistent with the present invention
- the electronic account system can submit it to an address matching engine that communicates with an address database.
- the address matching engine submits the address as a query to the address database, which returns a standardized physical address to be linked to the electronic account.
- the standardized physical address conforms to a pre-approved format and includes a nine-digit ZIP code. In this way, the physical address linked to the electronic account is as complete and correct as possible, even if the customer submitted only a partial address (e.g., only a 5-digit ZIP code).
- This address matching process is described in detail below with reference to Figure 9.
- Customer Registration Process Figure 5A is a high level block diagram of a system for establishing an electronic account for a customer.
- a customer 502 at a computer such as a personal computer, connects to a network 504 to provide registration information to a registration system 506.
- Network 504 can be, for example, the Internet
- registration system 506 can be, for example, the USPS Internet Customer Registration System.
- the registration information can include customer name, physical address, e-mail address, telephone number, a public key or other password, and a request for a personal or business electronic account.
- IDV form 510 can include the customer's physical address, the customer's e-mail address, the location of the nearest registration office, and a date by which the customer must go to the registration office. IDV form 510 can also include a list of identity validation documents that the customer must present at the registration office, such as a driver's license, birth certificate, or utility bill. In one embodiment, the customer can select the identity validation documents when submitting registration information to registration system 506. IDV form 510 can include a confirmation bar code. The confirmation bar code can be created by the registration system 506 and linked to the electronic account when IDV form 510 is created.
- IDV form 510 can include a set of instructions and a customer care telephone number that the customer can call if he has any problems. IDV form 510 can also include a signature and date block for the customer to execute as part of the identification validation process at the registration office.
- FIG. 6 is a more detailed diagram of a system for establishing an electronic account for a customer.
- customer 502 provides registration information to registration system 506 via network 504.
- Registration system 506 includes an application server 602, a web server 604, and a database server 606.
- Application server 602 includes software tools to generate dynamic content and execute applications for registration system 506.
- Application server 602 is described in more detail below with reference to Figure 7.
- Web server 604 processes HTML requests to enable communications with customer 502 and to provide data to application server 602 and database server 606.
- Database server 606 processes all communications with an Internet
- ICRS database 608 consists of two logical components: a customer name database 610 and a customer address database 612.
- Customer name database 610 stores the registration information provided by a customer along with an electronic account number assigned to the customer.
- Customer address database 612 stores the customer's physical address. In this embodiment, the physical address is stored separately from the customer's name and other information to protect the security of the customer.
- packet filter access can be installed between customer name database 610 and customer address database 612. Consistent with the present invention, the ICRS database could be maintained as a single database.
- AME DP/+4 system software 706 includes an interface to address matching directories and associated software to access those directories. This software can be used to resolve a physical address based on USPS delivery guidelines to create a standardized physical address.
- a standardized physical address can meet one of four levels of address standardization. The first level of standardization is 'delivery point,' which resolves the address to an unique delivery point. The second level of standardization is 'plus 4,' which resolves the address to a valid range of addresses within a plus 4 segment of a ZIP code. The third level of standardization is '5 digit,' which resolves the address to a five-digit ZIP code area only. The fourth level of standardization is 'last line,' which resolves the address to a city, state, and ZIP code. The address matching process is described in more detail below with reference to Figure 9.
- FIG. 9 is a flowchart of an address matching process performed by a registration system consistent with the present invention.
- Standardized address information 910 can include a standardized address and related information, including a DPID key.
- the DPID key can be used to access a storage location in a master address database as described below.
- the DPID key can be stored with the electronic account information in ICRS database 608.
- the physical address file is processed in an address matching system 1204 as described above to obtain standardized physical addresses for the customers.
- the standardized physical addresses are processed by a key generator 1206 to obtain keys for accessing ICRS database 608.
- ICRS database 608 is queried at 1208 to create an e-mail address mailing list 1210 corresponding to the physical address file.
- the content file is combined with e-mail address mailing list 1210 to facilitate an electronic mailing 1212.
- Electronic mailing 1212 is sent to an e-mail routing system 1214 that sends electronic mailing 1212 to e-mailbox repository 1216 for delivery to the plurality of customers.
- E-mail routing system 1214 may also provide a status report of e-mail delivery to the sender that provided file 1202.
- FIG 15 is a block diagram of an advertisement filtering service that can be provided as part of an electronic mailbox consistent with the present invention.
- Advertisement messages 1402 could be filtered according to the customer's preferences.
- a customer could specify certain types or categories of advertisement messages to be accepted by the e-mailbox. For example, a customer may wish to receive advertisement messages from automobile companies but no others or to receive no advertisements at all.
- Figure 16 is a block diagram of an e-mail service that can be provided as part of an electronic mailbox consistent with the present invention.
- Conventional e-mail messages can be received and stored in e-mail message section 1404 of e-mailbox 1302.
- E-mail message section 1404 can include an in-box, out-box, and trash section as found in conventional e-mail systems.
- the individual information section provides text boxes and/or drop-down lists for the customer to enter: full name, including first name, middle initial, and last name; title, such as Mr. or Miss; suffix title, such as Jr., Sr., II. or III; date of birth, including month, day, and year; home phone; and work phone.
- the e-mail address selection section includes text boxes and/or drop-down lists for the customer to enter a first, second, and third choice of a vanity e-mail address along with a password for the e-r ailbox.
- the user interface asks the customer to reenter the password to ensure that it is accurately captured.
- This section also enables the customer to choose a shared secret, which can consist of an adjective, a noun, and a verb.
- the shared secret can serve as a master password for the registration system and helps to identify the customer in the future. For example, the shared secret can be used by the customer to gain access to the customer's digital certificate later in the registration process.
- Figure 19H is a user interface that is displayed to the customer if the vanity e-mail address selected is unavailable.
- the user interface can offer suggestions of available e-mail addresses and a text box to receive the customer's alternate selection.
- Figure 19J is a user interface for obtaining identity validation information from the customer.
- the customer is prompted to select two forms of identification to be used in the identification verification process.
- a drop-down list of acceptable identification documents is presented.
- the acceptable identification documents can include a photo identification, e.g., driver's license, passport, military ID, etc., and a secondary ID, e.g., utility bill, telephone bill, etc. Based on the type of identification document that the customer selects, different data can be captured, including a control number, expiration date, etc.
- Figure 19K is a user interface for displaying registration information to the customer.
- This user interface displays the information that has been provided by the customer and enables the customer to edit the information if needed and to print the information to retain for his records before proceeding with the rest of the registration process.
- the physical address that is presented has been processed by the address matching system described above. In other words, the standardized physical address is presented. In this embodiment, if the address matching system could not resolve the physical address to a delivery point or plus 4 level, asterisks and a message can be displayed to inform the customer that the physical address is not fully resolved.
- Figure 19L is a user interface for explaining a private key system to the customer. The private key is to be generated by browser software running on the customer's computer at the direction of the registration system. The private key will be used by the customer to access the digital certificate to activate the customer's electronic account. The user interface presents a drop-down list for the customer to select an encryption strength, if the customer's browser supports different levels of encryption.
- Figure 19N is a user interface for establishing a password for the customer's private key. Because the private key will enable access to the customer's digital certificate, and therefore the electronic account, the customer is encouraged to establish a password to protect the private key. This user interface enables the customer to select a password and enter a confirmation copy of the password before continuing.
- Figure 190 is a user interface presented to a customer declining to establish a password for the private key. This user interface informs the customer that a password can be established at a later time and enables the customer to continue the registration process without establishing a password for the private key.
- Figure 19T is a user interface for presenting a digital certificate to the customer. This user interface displays a name for the digital certificate and enables the customer to provide a different name, if desired.
- Figure 19W is a user interface for completing the electronic account registration process. This user interface displays a message informing the customer that the electronic account has been activated.
- FIG 20 depicts some classes of messages that can be processed by a secure electronic mailbox (SEM).
- SEM 2002 can process a bill, such as a mortgage bill, utility bill, etc. from a biller 2004, i.e., a biller, a biller's representative, or a biller service provider.
